### ⭐⭐⭐ great knits but so much seaming!
            
*by M***K on 30 March 2012*

I ordered this book after a lot of research. I try to stick to free patterns on ravelry but was willing to splurge on a book or two of baby patterns since I have my first on the way in June and I liked almost every design in this book. Unfortunately, I have put off several projects I hoped to make because rather than being written in the round, they are worked flat and seamed! This is totally unnecessary and simply creates extra work and seam lines on dresses and pants. So, until I can work out the modifications needed to turn these patterns to in-the-round projects, I'll be working on more free ravelry projects. Also, the adorable romper is designed with no leg/crotch opening, meaning you'd have to take the whole thing off to change a diaper! Again, not willing to make it until I can work out the mods.If you don't mind seaming, however, get this book. The dress I really want to make is so adorable, I am willing to rework the pattern. There are some really sweet projects that need less tweaking like the diaper cover (which needs to be shortened for a newborn) and the matinee sweater which I haven't needed to adjust yet at all. Also, it has a large variety of projects that feature a range of techniques. This means projects for beginning and advanced knitters.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐ Dated patterns, ut very clear instructions
            
*by S***; on 18 June 2015*

I'm giving this book 3 stars because 1. it is very well put together. 2. the instructions are very very clear. 3. It is hard cover and will last forever.  BUT..... I will honestly only maybe knit two patterns from this book.  Most the patterns just did nothing to entice me or were very, very dated.
  

### ⭐ Old book!
            
*by K***A on 11 September 2015*

The book is old! 1 page missing!
